Two Left Feet

It's pretty basic I guess, when you go from 3 to 5 kids, you go from 3 to 5 kids that need stuff!  In today's case, shoes.  Now, shoe shopping here would be terrible if we lived here, as the styles are frankly SO much cooler than in America.  I would have a wife and 3 teenage daughters on shoe rampages!  Today was more practical in just getting shoes that were needed and fit.  I am guessing from the husbandly distance that the fashion pluses were a bonus.  There is a huge outdoor market we went to, it's like a giant really close proximity small storage unit area full of people selling lots of things, but tons of vendors with clothes and shoes, and the prices are very reasonable if not just flat out sweet!  Afterwards we connected with our facilitator for a bit of dinner and game planning.  We've done a good amount of packing and are starting see the light at the end of the trip tunnel.  Tomorrow is a big day for getting our paperwork in order for Kayleigh and Michael and other loose ends, pray that all goes smoothly, and spending more money on fun stuff like passports et al.  We're praying all works out financially as we finish our trip as we'll end up here about 2 weeks longer than planned.  Back to the apartment for the evening where we're reminded that there is no air conditioning here, and it's the warmest it's been this time of year in 30 years!  Kids are unwinding and getting ready for bed, Kayleigh is using google translate to work on her english to figure out the instructions for Sodoku.  I know english and still don't understand the instructions for Sodoku.  Going to bed as tomorrow is going to be a day of running around and experiencing the paperwork joys that come with the adoption!
